I was just reading through the race 2 results for the aussie racing cars and stumbled apon this....

DNF | 21 | JFR/Holden Young Lions | John Faulkner (NSW) | Falcon

In case you can't interpret that, you have John Faulkner who is 50 something, driving for Holden Young Lions in an Aussie racing cars Ford Falcon..

JC-XR8

Had an answer here - but it was for V8 supercars, not aussie race cars.

Next time I'll read all of the words in the post!

He owns the young lions team but interesting he chose to drive the Falcon look alike I guess the Commo body still isn't done yet

You'd think he'd opt for the FJ bodyshell wouldnt you unless its just a typo.

I think the point that James was making here is that JF is 50 driving for the Holden YOUNG Lions, wasn't this venture started to give young blokes a chance to race????

The 2nd Aussie Racing Cars race was awesome. The lead changed about 20 times!

JamesM

That was 1 of 2 points. 'Holden Young Lions' is the team name, it's not a sponsor as such so I'm puzzled as to why he would enter himself in firstly, a holden sponsored Falcon, and secondly as a Holden Young Lion..

GTRMagic

The short answer is that JF was curious about joining the series, and the organisers arranged for John to take the SuperCheap Falcon for a race weekend to decide if it was a class he wanted to enter.

I know JF was very enthusiastic about the car and is likely to be buying one at some point, presumably a Holden FJ body - there are no Commodore shells in the field yet
